which were, “ That any private citizen, as well as

THE CROPS.
The Cork Crop.—We are pleased to learn
(says the Macon Messenger of tbe 4lh instant)
from an experienced planter, that tbe corn crop
in South-Western Georgia, west of the Flint Riv
er, is very large and exceedingly fine. East of
the River the crop is not as promising, bnt is never
theless very good. We are pleased to bear this
news from that quarter, as an abundant crop
the South-West will relieve tbir market from the
inconveniences occasioned by a short crop in the
upper counties. Tbe Railroad to Oglethorpe will
be in operation by January, when the planters of
that section will, no doobt, be able to sell their
Corn at fair prices.
ID* We are sorry to state, says the Abbeville
South Carolina Banner, that our prospects
abundant crop of corn in this district is inauspi
cious. The drought has effectually twined what
at one time was a fair' calculation of plenty.
Portions of this District wifi nottnake half enough
to do ihroqgh the next-seasob. The supply of old
corn may be more abundant than wethink, if so,
the scarcity will be partially relieved. The Cot
ton is rather better than the corn,crop, but stilt (ar
from being good. In some localities a fair yield
will be made.
